John McDonald does it again (WOW)
« on: September 30, 2010, 08:50:00 PM »
Here is my New Big River Longbow. 66" 56# @ 28.
When I ordered it from John I thought well it will be plain. black phenolic riser and black glass on the limbs. but I was sure it would be a shooter. MAN was I wrong this thing is Smokin.

NICE>>>>--------> You do know you have 2 pegs empty on that bow rack? Something should be done about that   :biglaugh: ,Really sharp looking bow. I'm a wood kinda guy but those red Highlites look great with the black.

James, PM sent, If you make it my way, you can shoot my bow to see if you like it.

Good Luck with not becoming addicted with his bows, You see Earl has the bug and if I had a few more dollars, I would have another on my rack.

His bows are reasonably priced.
Relax,
